Look WHOOOO"s Expecting

NO, NO, NO it's not me!!!!  I had the pleasure of hosting a baby shower for my cousin Kim. Our family was so excited to celebrate a new one joining the clan. When we started talking about the baby shower, she mentioned she really liked owls. Now must people that know me well, know that I DO NOT like birds or owls. So I had to chuckle that I was going to be planning a shower that consisted of owls. I have decided that the whimsical owls are cute, but the real thing-not so much! I had so much fun planning the shower and decided to use bright colors which was perfect for spring.

We  had tons of yummy food, including chicken salad and pulled pork, dips and cheeseballs and my cousin Kim's favorite- grape salad.  I was so lucky to find a local lady who did the cupcakes for an incredible price and they were so good. We had a wonderful day and she was blessed with many wonderful things.

The entry table with favors and games. I had each guest sign a copy of Kim's favorite book that she read as a child.

I made a diaper cake for the cake table.

My cousin Mandi is a professional photographer so she took some pregnancy pics that day

Aren't baby girl clothes the cutest.

She got just a few gifts
